The Name May Change
But The Message Is Still The Same
NRA-ILA began putting out a weekly update on legislative and
political developments that we considered to be of interest to
the pro-gun community in 1994. We called it the "NRA-ILA FAX
Alert" because fax machines, at the time, seemed to be the most
popular, effective way to distribute timely information to as
many people as possible.
But the fax machine has been replaced by
e-mail in popularity, efficiency, timeliness, as well as in
cost-effectiveness. With this shift, we have determined it is
time to change the name of this alert, which will now be called
the "NRA-ILA Grassroots Alert." Those still utilizing a fax
machine for delivery of this alert will still be able to receive
it - although we encourage you to convert to e-mail if possible - and
the type of information and calls to action will remain
unchanged.
If you do have an e-mail address, but you still receive the
NRA-ILA Grassroots Alert every Friday via your fax machine,
please switch over to our e-mail system. We can send e-mail at
virtually no cost, while each fax incurs the cost of a long
distance call, not to mention your cost in paper. E-mail also
allows you more flexibility in relaying our information to
others, which we do encourage. If you would like to switch to
e-mail delivery, click here.
Once
you start receiving our alerts via e-mail, call the Grassroots
Division at (800) 392-8683, and let us know we can take you off
the fax system.
